16 But when something new comes out, I usually want to add it for all the
17 packages. I have a few things listed in package.use but I don't want to
18 clutter the crap out of it and then have two files that needs cleaning.
19 I have used the eix-test before but it seems to have waaaay to much
20 output and it seems something changed and it makes less sense to me
21 now. Maybe I need to give it another whirl and check into some output
22 options.

24 It'll have to wait until after garden time tho.
